[LAU] Ubuntu Studio looking for contributors

Hi everyone! Ubuntu Studio is looking for contributors, and there's plenty of room for new people in all our work areas - Testing, Public Relations, Artwork, Documentation and Development. You don't need to be a hacker, or otherwise ordinarily skilled. It's enough you have a friendly attitude, and the will to help. I've prepared some pages.. * Our main site: https://ubuntustudio.org/contribute/ * Our wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/JoinTheTeam So, if you think this might be something for you, don't hesitate to join us! Since this is a post to the Linux audio community, it makes sense I explain a little bit about what you could do to contribute to the audio side of things. * Software Selection: Just researching what is out there, new applications, plugins, etc - since our goal is to be a gateway for new users coming to the Linux audio world, we want to represent Linux audio with a nice selection of applications and settings. * Testing: Of course, always important. We need to know what works, and what doesn't. If we find bugs, we should report them. And we should try to work as closely upstream, with Debian and software developers to make sure bugs get attention and are fixed. Most of everything audio-wise on a Ubuntu Studio system is directly imported from Debian, and we'd like to keep it that way, as that means we don't reinvent the wheel, and also, any improvements will spread throughout the Debian tree of derivatives. * Performance Testing: Kernel testing, trying different drivers, hardware, and also designing the tests to be performed. Based on the results, we suggest and make changes where they seem most logical. * Public Relations: Posting news, conducting interviews with developers, musicians, artists who work with Linux platforms. Interacting with users, etc. As we are probably the most common linux multimedia distro out there, we have the opportunity to also spread information and experiences to a large base of users. * Documentation: What most try to avoid doing, probably, but a very important part of any organization. Our goal is to reuse as much as possible of what already exists out there, since that would lessen our workload. But, we also need to write our own docs. As this is seldom the first priority, there's plenty to do on this front. I'm probably forgetting a bunch of stuff, but this is really just meant as an introduction anyway. Hope to see some new contributors soon!
